the complete NTY article ripped off by Axios:

You're right. We need to CHOOSE people to run... not just allow bored ego manics to 'appoint' themselves for the job. Let's search out the best - then support them.
I question the gist of this article. Many people voted for Trump because Hillary was a terrible person, and a terrible campaigner. And that had nothing to do with growth rates or inflation.
If Trump wins, we get the House.
Hell, in 2016, control of the House was called at 9:30 pm.
“In other words, a more “normal” Republican would likely have won the popular vote by a substantial margin (instead of losing it by three million votes).”
WRONG! A more “normal” Republican, you know, like Romney or McCain would have got crushed in 2016 ... all the other candidates would have been constantly apologizing to every slander by the dying lying leftist fake stream enemedia, making the latter nearly invulnerable in the future if they had gotten Hillary elected ...
Trump, on the other hand, has almost single-handedly destroyed the dying lying leftist fake stream enemedia, or at least provoked them into a frenzy of slow motion suicide via the vilest and most blatant excess of lies, bias, and propaganda ...
Demographics are not our friend, but if we can keep the Hispanic vote around 40 percent, were in great shape. As for the house, hopefully the Supreme Court tells the states to go pound sand with regard to gerrymandering. And hopefully we won’t have many retirements this time. The senate should hold. Colorado probably a loss and Alabama a win so senate stays the same.
“So the question for 2020 may well be whether Mr. Trump can overcome the majority of voters’ poor perception of him and use a good economy and incumbency to win re-election.”
right. a “poor” perception fostered by a uniform and constant deluge 24x7x365 of bias, hate, lies, and vile propaganda by the dying lying leftist fake stream enemedia that hasn’t reported a single positive thing about Trump’s Presidency since he was elected ... All I can say, is thank God for the Internet for sites like Brietbart, Free Repubic, and several others ...
One thiing models can’t account for, is the influence of Big Social Media opinion manipulation.
see/listen to Scott Adams.
If we can’t take back the House we are pissing in the wind.
The illegal alien vote will determine our next president.
Even Liberals are realizing that having Creepy Joe as their best candidate means President Trump should comfortably be reelected.
I'm tempted to issue a:
Suspicion of "Voter Entrapment" Alert!
Almost Alinskian in nature... Just keep those GOP voters happy and home on election day... It's in the bag!
I’m going to do my part vote and campaign...
Dems are going to steal it all.
The ‘model’ was California 11/2018
It will not be easy. In a sane world, Trump would be rewarded for having such a good economy.
